First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program called CHAMPION that helps children with overweight or obesity and asthma live healthier lives. The program includes doctor visits, diet advice, and health coaching. Researchers want to see if doing the program entirely online works as well as meeting in person. About 500 children aged 4 to 17 will take part.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
CHAMPION program (behavioral intervention combining healthy lifestyle coaching and asthma management)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that an online version of the program works as well as in-person visits, making it easier for families to access care.
What could go wrong
This is a behavioral study, not a drug trial, so results may vary widely. The program requires significant time commitment, and improvements may be modest or not sustained long-term.
